Arabs don't seem to understand that if you declare war on another country and lose, you cannot then demand that the lands you lost be returned to you.

Ah, yes—another of the US allies heard from. The US needs to STOP sending aid to these countries in hope of some loyalty. They are all singing “Take the Money and Run”.

You don't think this is exactly what Ubama asked of them?

Precisely,aid will be linked to loyalty to the Obama agenda, not the American agenda.

“I guess Indian should cede Kashmir to Pakistan.”

Will Israel have the guts to say that?
Land for peace and all that...

Under the Indian Constitution, the Prime Minister has principal executive power, not the President.

Time to bring our high tech jobs back to the US as well !

And dealing with them as customers in tech support, they need some manners.

The last time I checked, Syria had been using the Golan Heights to shell Israeli towns, right up till the time when Syria invaded Israel, and nearly destroyed it... Then, with the help of US supplies, they pushed through the Golan, and were within 50 mile of Damascus before pressure from the US, USSR, and the UN forced Israel to stop.

If Syria wanted to keep the Golan Heights in perpetuity, they shouldn't have invaded Israel to begin with.

It seems that the Indian president also forget a little incident that happened in Mumbai not all that long ago... Where muslim terrorists attacked India. And they saved some of the worst atrocities to be carried out against the Jews at the Chabad center in Mumbai. They have common enemies.

There is some internal Indian politics involved here somewhere. Israel has long been allied with India in defense matters. Even stranger:

“Israel is now India’s second largest arms provider after Russia. India is viewed by both the Israelis and the Palestinians as a trustworthy intermediary.”

Guess the fine gentleman from India forgot all about Kashmir for a moment didn't he.

Looks like that gives us a wedge to deal with Pakistan ~ they get Kashmir if they clear out the Tribal Territories.
